The authors report the first realization of a grating-assisted vertical codirectional coupler filter with an integrated pin-detector. The device was 5 nm bandwidth, 80% coupling efficiency for an interaction length of 1.25 mm, and an overall detection efficiency of 0.1 A/W. The effect of the MQW can be seen in a change of 11 nm in the TE-TM shift. Over 20 nm temperature tuning and a bandwidth of 2.6 nm are demonstrated, which makes this a very versatile device concept.
